Very easy to put together. Would like a softer seat but it’s not hateful. I am an 81 yr. old woman. If I can put it together anyone can. I did however find that they should make it clear which is the back and which is the front of the back. Also instructions says to attach the back to the base and then the back to the arms. I found the holes to the arms did not match up. So I decided to attach the back to the arms and Then it was very easy to match up the back to the base.
